In around 1997 I installed I think Red Hat 4.x because I'd seen screenshots of the Enlightenment window manager and wanted that beauty on my desktop.

Now all I want is the Windows 98 look and feel back, when icons and user controls were clear and legible and consistent and you could drag a window from anywhere on a title bar.

I'd hate to be stuck with those tiny icons on a 4k display though. The problem is properly scaling pixel iconography doesn't work so well across a lot of devices.

I've seen some legacy fixed size games in tiny windows. If hate the os to be like that. My vision isn't good enough.
